Manchester United take on the visitors Liverpool in the round 3 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, September 1st at Old Trafford (Manchester
Manchester United made significant progress after Ten Hag's arrival, but much like his predecessors, Erik's strong first season was followed by a series of failures in 2023/2024. Their return to the Champions League ended in a last-place finish in the group stage, trailing not only Bayern but also Galatasaray and Copenhagen. In the Premier League, after securing third place and expressing ambitions to fight for the title, the club plummeted to 8th place. However, in the final match of that season, in the FA Cup final, the Mancunians managed to defeat City—keeping the Dutchman in his job. Furthermore, they brought in familiar players for him, including Zirkzee, De Ligt, and Mazraoui (along with Yoro, who cost £40 million, but the young defender suffered a serious injury). Despite these reinforcements, the first matches were underwhelming. City deservedly won the Community Shield, even if it was via penalties. Yes, a late Zirkzee goal secured a win against Fulham, but then Joshua inadvertently hindered their success against Brighton. Moreover, the Seagulls secured a 2-1 victory in extra time.

Liverpool limited their changes to a new manager. The Merseysiders, under Klopp, enjoyed a powerful period in their history, winning everything possible, including the Champions League and, finally, the Premier League. However, half a year ago, Jürgen openly admitted that he was burned out and didn't have the energy for another season. In the end, the German bowed out with a League Cup win and lifted his team to third place in the Premier League. His successor was chosen carefully, with Klopp's involvement, ultimately resulting in the recruitment of Arne Slot from Feyenoord. But essentially, all the incoming transfers were limited to the Dutchman’s arrival. Liverpool only released non-essential players like Adrian and Thiago and made profitable sales of several loaned-out reserves, led by Clark. This squad stability helped them start with a 2-0 win at newly-promoted Ipswich and repeat that scoreline against a strong Brentford side.
Last season, both Premier League matches between these two ended in draws. Even in the cup, the points were shared, but in extra time, United scored more goals. The Reds have the ability to capitalize on their opponent's mistakes, as United clearly hasn’t resolved all their issues. Bet on an away win.
Prediction for the match: Liverpool to win.
